- Your old VHS tape can become defective, not allowing the tape to rewind, Fast Forward, or even play. This video will show you how to take the tape apart to resolve the issue. If this is a problem with multiple or all of your VHS tapes, the problem may be your VCR player. Please see my video on fixing your VCR player: • VCR Fix - VHS Tapes No...
Thank you, this helped. Finally got my VCR I ordered on ebay and was watching a tape in it, worked fine, then I went to rewind and heard the tape being crumpled a bit, looked inside and saw the tape was moving up and down as it rewinds. I found out it wasnt the VCR but this specific tape. I opened it like you showed and jiggled the levers a bit and now it rewinds without moving up and down.
Thank you so much! I started panicking when my tape wouldn't rewind and your video helped a lot :D
Great video vhs never locks up like them blue Ray's dose specially when they get all scratch up
I appreciate this video. Working on my tapes!! Thank you.
I guess I’m transferring the reels into another casing. The spring is fine, my vcr will rewind other tapes but this one movie won’t rewind :/ not sure what the problem is but great suggestion about switching the body out.
Thank you so much. This help me to fix my tapes. Your awesome!
On my tape, it had come loose from the other reel. I'm not sure if I repaired it correctly, but I taped the end onto the empty reel.
I have one that seems to have rewound to far. There is no tape running across the top and all the tape is on the reel on the left side. I think this gives me enough of an idea of how to get it opened up. And hopefully fixed.
Hi i have a tape that takes 4 mins to rewind, normally it takes less than 1 minute to rewind other tapes. Thanks. Please advise
All of the screws are.removed, but even with trying to force it apart, still not coming apart.
Hi, my tape rewinds & fast forwards but whenever I press play the timer is stuck on
ok, so, i found two tapes in an old abandoned house in the woods near me. one of them is labled "greg and becky's wedding may 31 1998" its not rewinding amd i really want to know who "greg and becky" are. i hope this works
Any tips for when you're missing those little wires that coil around the knobs the lever interacts with? I found one lose wire in my vhs tape that looks like it should go over one of these knobs, but can't actually get it to fit over either one of them.
Thanks dude
Hey thanks man, I just fixed a tape instead of losing my shit and crying over it!
I have a question: Why do I need those reel-locks at all? Are they not just for storage safety. Can't they be removed when they become a problem? They are not required for playback, rewind, or forward right?
